Minimum distance from reflective surfaces

Reflective surfaces near opto-electronic protective devices can indirectly deflect beams from
the Transmitter into the Receiver. This can cause an object in the protective field not to be
detected! All reflective surfaces and objects (material containers, cans, etc.) must therefore
be kept at a minimum distance "a" from the protective field. The minimum distance "a"
depends on the distance "b" between the Transmitter and the Receiver.
a = Minimum distance
b = Protective field width
c = Reflective surface
